Green baked eggs

Make a batch of spiced lentils, then use it as a base for three more meals, including these green baked eggs. Serve with crusty bread or toasted flatbreads

Creamy Cajun prawn orzo

I love to use orzo to make quick creamy pasta after a busy day at work, but you can use this sauce with any kind of pasta. I like to make my own Cajun spice mix as ready-made mixes often contain added salt, but if you don’t think you’ll use up all the individual spices, then take the ready-made option – just check the label to ensure it’s not too salty.

Super-green curry with quinoa rice

I’ve used chickpeas in this, but the curry base is adaptable; just add your choice of protein. A squeeze of lemon adds vitamin C to aid iron absorption and mixing quinoa with rice increases your intake of high-fibre wholegrains and protein.

Matty fills these simple ravioli with creamy spinach and ricotta, then tosses them in a fragrant, buttery sauce. (You will need a pasta machine for this)

Try this simple curry for a family dinner. It delivers seven plant points, plenty of fibre and two of your five-a-day

Vegan miso mushroom & spinach pithiviers
